[@SuzanneAlbanese-x6u]

These lovely ladies were never a secret I'm from the uk. My grandpa told me about these lovely ladies.

[@kimberlyross6688]

How wonderful!❤❤❤

[@kawaiipusheenlovexoxo5352]

Never heard of them before watching the movie 😢am glad your grandpa told you about them!!! I hope he will watch the movie with you if he is still alive ❤

[@kappawife]

They were never heard of in the United States the country they served. How tragic that the country they served didn’t care about them.

[@mikebrown9521]

Thank you 🙏🏿 Tyler Perry for bringing this story to life.

[@rosehiggins6510]

Yesss indeed we are so proud of you Tyler for giving us this wonderful story !!! 🥺❤️❤️❤️

[@diamondeyes2417]

Thank you, 6888!!! A job very well done!

[@lulacrayton]

Yes, this is beautiful and keep digging for more untold history.

[@williambatten5833]

This is only one reason why we need to make sure our kids learn about our history because stories like this are not taught in their history books and the little they do tell is slowly being erased. Thank you Tyler Perry for telling this story. Keep them coming, and thank you 6888❤

[@Chasing72]

What they did for morale can never be quantified or praised highly enough.

[@tonishamuhammad14]

Exactly. Well said. 👏🏾🙌🏾🫶🏾

[@RN083012]

Amen. Well said.

I AM posting this comment on “CHRIST” Mas 2024. I AM an African-American woman veteran that served over a decade in two different military branches. My late father served thirteen years as a paratrooper at what was then Ft.Bragg. I AM grateful that my parents stressed to me the urgent need to educate myself further in regards to, the “His Story” of African-Americans. Thank you Mr. Perry, Miss Washington and the cast of the 6888th. God Bless you all.

I always visit Arlington when I'm in or close to area...now my knowledge of the SixTriple Eight Batallion is a perfect reason to keep up that (visit) tradition.❤🙏

[@kevindill9748]

Thanks so much for this video! This is the first I’d heard of these amazing women and their contributions to our country. 🇺🇸

[@velmathompson1670]

Your statement is likely true for 98% of the world, especially us African American women. But we know now, and much like that amazing ALL FEMALE Batallion, we have to get the word (and their amazing work & sacrifice) out into the world.!

[@TitusMatthews-x4h]

Rip condolences, to all the 6,888 female black soldiers unsung heroes . Unknown until now , great legacies in the black history books and American history books being added in the future for children and grandchildren and All of us to read about

[@twinkles2150]

Thank you Six Triple Eight Women!!!!

[@dreameryoung38]

They are real for the knuckle heads who say they werent

[@ThomasPrice-g9f]

I'm waiting for a movie telling the story of black units during WWII that took part in D Day. I had a rare opportunity to talk to one of those old guys I met when I was stationed in Holland, just out of the blue. This old man described the opening scene from Saving Private Ryan to a T! This was around 1992 and that movie didn't come out until 1998. I wish I could have spent more time with him. But when I came back out of the post office on base he was gone. Like he was a ghost. But I distinctly remember him telling me that he was from the south and decided to stay in Holland because they treated black soldiers like heroes and took care of them and in America black soldiers were being hung. I met that old man while he was setting on the bench outside the post office on Soesterberg AB.

[@Anastasia63788]

Thank you Tyler Perry I love you so much how black hero

[@rmrita55]

This was a great. Story and movie

[@jayedwards-gj9xu]

Thank you ladies, I love you all for your contribution to society as a whole for all Americans.     👏👏🙌🙏🙏 This needs to be taught in school, I am 42 years old and just now hearing about this. We have to preserve our history in order to know where we came from and that it doesn't compare to where God is taking us. He is showing us how far we have came and we are still coming and to never give up hope. Thank you LTC. Charity Adams and soldiers for having faith and continuing the fight I pray the Lord gives me this type of strength that shall endure even when he comes back to get us, In Jesus Name Amen...

[@DebbieRamsey-Hanks]

Tremendous legacy. I n gratitude

[@DrayArkansas]

Just imagine how many more stories aren’t being told

[@edwardtaylor1282]

Sho Nuff Thanks for the video, we should remember all and give honor to all soldiers.

[@theonly1258]

Women are so resourceful and can oftentimes find a way to get the seemingly impossible done…an amazing story 🙏🏾

[@beverleyreid563]

This is beautiful. I wonder what else in Black history they have hidden. (at least there are pictures and videos to show what took place).

[@joyceeasmon636]

Thank you to Tyler Perry and the team who shone a long overdue light on these remarkable achievement by these women.👏😇 May God continue to bless him 🙏👏

[@susanwahl6322]

There is a book called Sisters in Arms. It is a fictionalization of them but it stays true to their legacy.

[@cindyrolle6476]

We must never let our history be unwritten or rewritten in an untrue manner. Our history must always be told. Are you listening DeSantis? Thank you to Tyler Perry and this historic movie.

[@lillianwilliams5510]

If we dont know OUR HISTORY AND PRESERVE IT AND TEACH TO OUR FAMILIES STUDENTS AND WORL.OUR HISTORY IS LOST. THANK YOU SO MUCH TYLER PERRY AND EVERYONE WHO BROUGHT THIS HISTORY FORWARD. I DARE SAY MANY HAVE SOMEONE WHO SERVED IN WAC OR SOME BRANCH OF THE MILITARY OR OTHER ASPECTS OF USA HISTORY WHO WILL NOT EVER GET DUE CREDIT.

[@luzbarrett-hayes1746]

Thank you for your service,beautiful and amazing women,they tried to forget you, but God knew you and knew who you were,thank you so very much hallelujah amen 🙏🏼💖🙏🏼

[@jaulanawilliams5101]

Thank you beautiful ladies. Both of my grandfathers and some of my great uncles fought in WWll. We just found out Hitler's military was under the influence of several drugs and it was like they would not stop. Thank you for keeping communication open for our family ❤❤❤

[@EboliKnight]

I would like to take this time to honor the last surviving member of the infamous Buffalo Soldiers.I just learned that Mr. Robert Dixon passed November 15, 2024 at the age of 103! The longest lived Buffalo Soldiers was Mr. Mark Matthews (buried at Arlington Cemetery) who lived to become 111 years old!😳 He passed in 2005. Merry “Christ” Mas everyone.❤

[@Beautiful-61]

[@linedanzer4302]

I am from al military family - since World War I there has been multiple family members on active duty up to today - and I worked 13 years for the US Postal Service. This movie educated me, touched my heart, and instilled a sense of pride for the women of the 6888th Battalion.

Thank you 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion for paving the way for Your Sister Soldiers, which served in The Women's Army Corps (WAC), World War II and after. Yes, I had the privilege to have met Tech5 Dixon. To my Soldier Sisters, your Legacy Will live in my heart forever..."Support and Defend".

[@deloresdaye40]

This was such a heartfelt movie. They did what others couldn't do and were never given any respect. They prove that there is nothing that BLACK WOMEN CAN'T DO!!!!!

[@maryburland2829]

Wow

[@joyscott1411]

Thank you 6888 🙏🏽🩵🕊️

[@diggee172]

I wish this movie was on regular broadcast tv or even in movies. The movie about these women needs to be seen by all. I don’t have Netflix and many others don’t as well. Netflix is too expensive for many.

[@martinegeorges4328]

An inspirational story. Guided by love. Love of their country. Love of these soldiers that was in need of their loves ones. And hopefully guided by the love of God. That ask to love each other. Know or remember that Jessu saves still.

[@adrinneladrinnel0403]

You should know why by now. They hate us, and they have plans that they want to carry out. That's why they delete our history or don't teach it to make us appear useless to society. They want to genocide them as a nation of people out of America and the world when the time is right. But the world forgot about one thing, The Most High has promised to deliver His chosen people out of the hands of their oppressors! HalleluYah all glory and praises to our King Yahushua☄️🧑🏿‍🦱👑🔥📜🛡🗡

[@ThomasPrice-g9f]

I wonder why? Hell I joined the Air Force in 1983 and rarely saw black officers. I remember we got a black woman captain as a shift commander for our security police flight. Them white boys gave that sistha hell. She wanted to be a JAG officer but they made her a cop. The brothas would have to take all the knives for her as much as possible.

[@Mrsplanetmaster9]

Please see the movie, thanx to Mr Perry for all his magic, and the ladies of 6888 MAGIC ++++ and to all a Joyous 🎄Chrismukkah 🕎 and a PEACEFUL New Year🎆 thru UNIFICATION please We the Peeps🫂🙏🏽
